Automatic switch to transmit mode (default time: 8 minutes)
The device has a motion detector. This lets the device automatically switch to transmit
mode if it detects that, in receive mode, you have not moved for 4 or 8 minutes. This
function can be very useful in case of a second accident, if searchers have not had time
to switch their device from search (receive) to transmit mode. The default time before
5
switching is 8 minutes .
However, if you are in search mode, the device asks for validation ("SEARCH?") to authorise
the switch to transmit. If you do not operate the centre button, the device switches even
if your selector is set to SEARCH.
This function can be deactivated (no automatic switch to transmission mode). This means
only you can switch from SEARCH (receive) mode to transmit mode
Adjusting LCD contrast (default: Medium)
This lets you adapt the display to ambient light
Reset
This lets you restore all the default settings.
Exit
Once you have set your device, validate Exit to record your settings and return to transmit
mode.
If the confi guration menu is inactive for 1 minute, the device automatically switches to
transmit mode, starting with a self-test.
